Thanks to those who provided suggestions to my request for walks near Derby as posted earlier.

Unfortunately there are no photos to accompany this short report.

On Wednesday last week I got the 6.1 bus from Derby out to Idridgehay ( good service and a helpful driver). From there I walked across fields to Hulland Ward then south along the brooks and also via roads to Brailsford. Joining the Centenary Way I walked east to Duffield, then a stroll south to Daley Abbey and back to base.

A pleasant walk in lovely weather, nice countryside and different aspects to my usual day walks by the coast in East Anglia.
